With huge thanks to

sheepmaster for this tutorial, I have made my very own Companion Cube!

Ta-da! Finished cube with its best friend, my boyfriend. It's made with three different colors of fleece, so it's very soft, and stuffed with layers of batting in the main cube part and fiberfill under the corner pieces, so it's very squishy. It took me a few days to finish, working on it a few hours a day--one day to cut and iron together all the pieces, one day to hand-stitch around the hearts and circles, one day to do the machine sewing, and one day to finish hand-stitching everything together.

I have also finally finished putting together my Babette blanket and got around to taking a picture!

I decided I would probably never finish seaming it if I actually tried to SEW it, so I went with a line of single crochet to hook it together instead (no pun intended, I swear). It's even more obnoxiously bright in person, and we joke that you could never fall asleep under this blanket because the colors would keep you awake! I proved that wrong today, though...
